<HTML>WOW! I sold both of my cyclos. One "ebayed" for $219 and the second one got sold to the "second place bidder" who happen to live about 40 miles from me for $217!

I owned them for about a year and found no real benefit from them.</HTML>

<HTML>Joe,

I am not a Cylco guy and find that many are...what did you not prefer about working with these units and what do you use in place of the Cyclo?

Thanks,</HTML>

<HTML>Joe, try the"D" handle(9227c) Makita,as I don't think that you'll go wrong on this unit. Soft start,which minimizes product sling,and I don't seem to be as worn out at the end of the day using mine............... Brandy!</HTML>

<HTML>We have four dewalt dw849 and four porter cable 7336.

I found the cyclo to be heavy and arkward. It would be nice for polishing aluminum I guess but nobody that worked for me liked it for the vehicles that we work on.</HTML>

<HTML>I guess I am too old, worked with more traditional buffer configerations, such as Milwaukee, Black and Decker, etc, and have a dislike for Hitachi, Makita, etc, with their "start up" speeds, plus the "handle of the top", IE, "D'handle.

I have to say this, what ever works for you, that is what counts, after all, as I say often in class, "Baskin-Robins didn't become a world wide, successful corporation, with just one flavor.".

<HTML>I ran a 900 pound Milwaukee for over 16 years!! What a well made machine. I still have it, model 5455 I think. Still runs tight and solid after all this time. I have only replaced the switch, brushes and cord.

Just too darn heavy!</HTML>

<HTML>Well, what can I say, Joe?

Except, welcome to the world of growing old!!!

LOL!!!

Hell, I ran one of those for years, but was a lot older than you, before I found that a day of a Milwaukee, was only for the very, very young.

LOL!!

(however, I went through "boot" when you weren't even a "wet spot"!)

<HTML>Joe,

I ain't even going there!!

Hey, when in San Antonio, stop by the booth, got a new way to make some peso's, that fit a detailers world, might be interesting for you now that you see the way of what it takes to make more than a "buck", but to build a business.

You know what I mean, it's not a put down, just a growing into the world.

<HTML>I certainly will stop by.

Are any of you guys interested at meeting up somewhere after the show????? Myself and 3-4 other detailers met up for dinner after the tech expo in Orlando last Jan. We BS'ed about auto detailing into the wee hours of the night. We had a great time!</HTML>

<HTML>I am at the marriot river center I think guys. We should get everyone together and "chew the fat" over a few pints after the expo. I'll email both Ron and Joe my cell # and if you guys want to do the same we can all keep in contact that way.</HTML>

<HTML>Gezzz, Jose,

You want "me" to write down your cell number?

Hey, hey, ok, but only this one time, but you have to buy the first two rounds.

Jack Daniels and water, with a little ice, OK?

Oh, and of course, two is my limit.

LOL!!!

See you there, got some good things to share with you.

Like, will have with me some "test protocals" on "real testing" of products, that I can not, due to legal reasons, present on the net.

You are gonna love it!
